Mix together the pork, melon, scallion,Also add about 2 tbs of soy sauce into the mixture.Shape the mixture into meat balls,Remember what I said in the previous post,While forming the meat balls,"Slap" the air out by tossing it back and forth between your palms.

(I'm so gonna ask my friend to take a picture of this motion in the future, so hard to explain it, either in Chinese or English)

Prepare a pot, with meat balls in it of course,Add some water, soy sauce, and about 7 cloves of garlic,Bring to a boil and simmer for about 20 minutes.

There you go,One of my favorite homemade food,

Supposedly I should steam it instead of just letting it boil in the liquid,At least that's how my mom make it,But I don't have the tools to steam anything at home,Taste almost the same though.
